About this ebook

The Locket- Book One

 

Successful actress Ellen Jackson reluctantly returns to her picturesque hometown of Thunder Valley. After gracing the covers of the rag magazines, she escapes the spotlight to nurture her broken heart while protecting herself from the scandal surrounding her. Her life spinning out of control, she takes refuge in the only place she knows she can find peace.

But that's not to be…

Instead of finding sanctuary, her return has sparked the imagination and grabbed the attention of the starstruck inhabitants of the small lake town. All eyes are on the young starlet while she is trying to forget her truth, and an unknown force is bent on making her remember.

 

When her own mother Melody went missing all those years ago, the entire valley grieved for the young mother as they laid her memory to rest. Now that a menacing force is bent on digging up the past, after two decades, the cold case has turned warm with new evidence of her disappearance mysteriously surfacing.

Her life in peril and her very safety put into question, Ellen seeks comfort in the arms of an unlikely source. Scared and confused —she finds herself at the center of a spiraling and an ever more sinister plot.

Author

Shelly Von West

I've always loved a good mystery. Even as a young girl, my mother and I would scour the shelves of dusty used bookstores for old gothic romances. The kind of romance that the male protagonist was a brooding reluctant owner of an old mansion; in a far-off land perched on the side of a cliff overlooking the churning sea. The female protagonist was typically young and naïve and somehow a threat to those who lurked in the shadows endeavoring to keep their secrets safe. Telling stories has been a lifelong passion, and after many of life's twists and turns, I am back to writing romances and mysteries. ​I enjoy spending time with my husband and three kids, traveling, cooking, home decorating, and seeking out new adventures in my free time.
